The Central Region Earth Surface Processes (ESP) Team conducts multi-purpose geologic mapping and topical environmental and climate change-related studies, primarily in the Central Region states, but also nationally and internationally, to address scientific issues concerning geologic, climatic, and environmental changes; human interactions with the environment; and characterization of the earth's surface and upper crust. Our team is composed of geologists, geophysicists, paleontologists, biologists, and support personnel stationed at the Central Region Headquarters in Denver, Colorado, and in field offices in other parts of the United States.
